With D-ID’s Creative Reality Studio, you can turn photos into lifelike, talking avatars, and generate high-quality presenter-led video content. We've recently added some amazing new features to let you boost your creativity even further.

Let's get started!
Create Your Presenter

On the “Create Video” page, choose from one of the existing presenters or add your own by clicking "Upload your own photo" and selecting the image you want to animate. For best results, use a front-facing photo with clear lighting.
Alternatively, you can utilize the power of generative AI to create a brand-new presenter from scratch. In the AI Avatar generator tool, type a prompt describing your desired look and press "generate". Choose one of the four options, or generate another set to choose from.

Canvas Layout lets you choose a layout that best fits your design, letting you create videos for mobile, social media, presentations, or more. The Canvas can be set to wide, square, or vertical, providing more flexibility in the video's presentation and format.
Add Your Script
The script is what determines what your presenter will say in the video. Your script can be up to 5 minutes long (roughly 700 words). If you need help, click on the "magic wand" icon, and GPT will assist you in generating text.
Language Selection
The studio offers over 100 different text-to-speech languages and accents to choose from. Note, the language of the script determines the language you should choose from the dropdown menu. If your script and voice language don’t match, the presenter will speak in the accent you have selected.
You also have the option to upload your own voice recording, by clicking the “Upload audio” button and selecting an audio file from your computer. Soon, you will also be able to record your voice directly in the studio.
Give Your Presenter a Voice

Choose your avatar’s expression

Add Text Overlays

Background Selection

You can also determine the positioning, layers, and transparency of your elements. Positioning determines where on the canvas you want the presenter to be. Layers, let you move the different elements backwards or forwards in your design. Transparency lets you choose how opaque you want each element to be.
